Bitcoin ATH unlikely as long as social sentiment runs too hot
Bitcoin may not post a new all-time high anytime soon, with crypto market sentiment at its highest level for months, according to Santment.
On Sept. 30, onchain analytics platform Santiment stated that those expecting a new Bitcoin all-time high may need to first wait until the crowd “slows down their own expectations.”
It looked into social sentiment data, adding that there are currently 1.8 bullish posts about Bitcoin for every one bearish post.
Bitcoin is currently trading at $64,406, around 12.6% down from its March all-time high of $73,734, according to CoinGecko.
Additionally, the asset was retreating sharply during early trading on Sept. 30, falling almost 2% over the past six hours to the time of writing.
SEC files settled charges against Mango operators
The United States SEC filed settled charges against Mango DAO and Blockworks Foundation for “engaging in the unregistered offer and sale of crypto assets called “MNGO” tokens,” on Sept. 27.
According to the filing, the entities involved raised more than $70 million for their “unregistered” organization, including funding from US-based investors.
The charges against Mango DAO and Blockworks Foundation were filed as settled, as the orgs have agreed to pay the SEC $700K in civil penalties, destroy any remaining Mango tokens, and petition markets and holders still in possession of the coins to delist and drop them.
